I Made it to the End of the Clip. Smug and Self-Satisfied Doesn't necessarily Equal Humor. It Can (the younger Albert Brooks Comes to Mind) But This Was Play-to-the-Crowd Aren't-We-Edgy Paint-by-Numbers.

Also Found Interesting that We Currently Have as President the Greatest Orator of All Time But There Wasn't a Speech of His That Made the Skit; Go Figure.

With Obama taking a pass on the commemoration of the Gettysburg Address and this disparagement, it is pretty clear that the left is not interested in a new nation conceived in liberty nor a government by from and for the people. Rather they are driving toward an old, top-down dictatorship.

Lord yes SNL used to be funny. Of course, if you put Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Dan Ackroyd, Jim Belushi,Gilda Radner and Jane Curtain (there were others in and out but those are the ones who imo made it great) together and don't get funny, something would be very wrong indeed. After they were gone there were flashes of greatness with Myers and Farley and Carvey and Ferrell and Rock, but never again was such an abundance of talent on SNL together.
